This is how Dejoy and the USPS will steal elections. Warehouse mail until after the deadline and then postmark it. Make plans for dropping your ballot off instead of mailing it. Make sure your community knows where to drop ballots.

Voting by mail is one of the few good things to happen since I became disabled. My polling place is a chaotic school with several sets of steps and long waits that would wipe me out for a day or so. I am very grateful for voting by mail and hope it doesn’t go away.

#USA: 🚨🚨 The Trump admin does not want YOU to VOTE.

The #fascist Orangutan Admin is coming up with anything to keep YOU from voting #MAGA out !

They #farright claim they need an original #birthcertifixate, they're trying to ban #VotingByMail, tou can only use an orig b-certificate or a passport for ID, they want to make sure the #postalservice is slow so that ballots aren't sent in in time. There's an obsession with signature-matching because it's a tool to eliminate ballots . They're trying to eliminate #EarlyVoting, etc

They're also trying to put #ICE at the polls, #voterintimidation, inceeasing the burden of #voting, etc

Vote by mail for citizens abroad may be acceptable since it is usually a small number of votes and it does not seem as easy to mess with it as with mail vote for anyone who asks.

IIRC the US considered allowing internet voting for soldiers abroad, but in the end concluded that but was too unsafe and opted for mail.

State legislative initiatives led mostly by #Republicans seek to shorten the return deadline for mailed ballots. It’s a change that’s upset members of the military and their families because it has the potential to disenfranchise those stationed overseas.

GOP action on mail ballot timelines angers military families

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) β€” Ohio's restrictive new election law significantly shortens the window for mailed ballots to be received β€” despite no evidence that the extended timeline has led to fraud or any other problems β€” and that change is angering active-duty members of the military and their families because of its potential to disenfranchise them.
